Snapshots from PEI πŸ“Έ 🌊🦞

Ending August with a few days at a cottage in Cavendish soaking up the last of the beach days 🀍

Im from PEI and moved away as a teenager to go to university and never moved back. I was a deeply closeted q***r person who grew up in a small town that felt claustrophobic. And if I’m being entirely honest with you, I have a love/hate relationship with the island still.

But I have to admit she sure is a pretty place β™₯️

Is this a safe space to admit I didn’t know you could be girly and a le***an when I was young? πŸ™ˆπŸ‘©β€β€οΈβ€πŸ’‹β€πŸ‘©

I thought I couldn’t possibly be gay because I liked dresses, and ballet, and doing my hair, and wearing makeup, and pink and purple. 😬

And because I grew up with basically ZERO q***r representation besides Ellen, I relied on stereotypes to shape what I thought a le***an was.

I had no idea that girly le***ans existed. Let alone girly le***ans who liked other girly q***r girls. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

My mind was blown wide open when I found q***r people sharing their lives on YouTube in the early 2010s.

And this my friends is why q***r representation is so important!!!!!

Everyone deserves to see happy, thriving q***r people they can relate to and see themselves in!

We listened to our requests and have created some new pride flag mugs, including two spirited and nonbinary flag mugs! And some of your favourites are making a come back πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆπŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ

We are excited to share our straw tumblers with you! These are perfect for iced coffee drinkers (like myself) and smoothies. The stainless steel straw is included πŸ₯€

So many of you also requested to go cups, and were so happy with how these turned out! Especially the 3D fruit cups that really pull the entire collection together ❀️

We can’t use our camper like this…

We are renovating a 2007 pop up camper and this is what it’s currently looking like 😬 snake skin, holes, mouse p*e, and mold?

We obviously can’t use it like this, but this brand of Popup camper doesn’t even exist anymore.

So we are going to have to find someone to custom make us a new canvas πŸ’°

Confessions of the β€œother” mother 🀍

I always thought I’d be the one to get pregnant and carry our babies, but that’s not how things worked out.

It lead to a lot of big feelings when our twins were little πŸ’›
